Andhra Pradesh: BJP for merger of Polavaram submergence villages with Telangana, says D.K. Aruna

The controversy that has erupted between Telangana and Andhra Pradesh over the impact of the floodwaters discharged from the Polavaram project on Bhadrachalam and some other villages is a part of the political game being played by the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP), BJP national vice-president D.K. Aruna has alleged.

The problem would be resolved only if the BJP was voted to power, Ms. Aruna said while addressing the media here on Saturday.

“As far as the BJP is concerned, it has been demanding that the villages facing submergence due to the Polavaram project be merged with Telangana in tune with the people’s wish,” Ms. Aruna said.
